Can the generic version of deflazacort also be effective in treating the disease?

It is a glucocorticoid used to treat Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) and has been approved by the FDA in the United States. Generic drugs of deflazacort need to undergo bioequivalence studies to prove that there is no significant difference in efficacy and safety from the original drug before they can be considered effective and approved by relevant departments for marketing. Therefore, the generic version of deflazacort approved for marketing can also effectively treat diseases.

In China, the generic version of deflazacort has not yet been approved for official marketing and cannot be purchased directly in the country. Patients usually need to purchase the original drug or obtain the generic version of deflazacort through other channels and use it under the guidance of a doctor.
